FWIW, I prefer to use a very sharp knife...
As for the deceased! Well I do what nature does, I compost a wee bit O
garden. :-)
I am now expecting some of those from the USA to tell me I"m wrong <grin>

In caverns deep, the Old Gods sleep;
but the trees still know their Lord,
and it's the Pipes of Pan which call the tune,
in the twilight of the wood.
The leaves they dance to the Goat God's tune,
and they whisper his name to the winds,
and the oak tree dreams of a God with horns,
and knows no other King.
